1. A pluggable optical line terminal (OLT), comprising:

  • a bi-directional optical transceiver configured to transmit optical signals to and receive optical signals from a number of optical network units (ONUs);

    an OLT chip coupled to the optical transceiver and configured to communicate with the ONUs through the optical transceiver;

    a pluggable interface coupled to the OLT chip and configured to electrically interface between the OLT chip and a piece of network equipment;

    wherein the optical transceiver, the OLT chip, and the pluggable interface are contained in an enclosure complying with a form factor, thereby allowing the pluggable OLT to be directly plugged into the network equipment.
